According to NBC News, former world champion and Olympic gold medalist Meldrick Taylor is being charged for his alleged role in an armed standoff with Philadelphia police.

According to the local police, officers responded to a North Philadelphia property late Monday night after a 26-year-old man claimed hat Taylor pulled a revolver on him while trying to evict the man from a first-floor apartment.

The man claimed that Taylor, 52, pointed the gun after the 26-year-old informed Taylor that he needed to give him days to vacate the property rather than force him to leave the next morning, police said.

When officers arrived and knocked on the door of the home, Taylor screamed, “I ain’t coming out,” police said.

SWAT was called in and Taylor eventually surrendered after about 90 minutes, investigators said.

The Philadelphia native was charged with aggravated assault, terroristic threats and weapons charges.

Taylor had a distinguished boxing career highlighted by his Olympic gold in the featherweight division at the 1984 Los Angeles Games.

Taylor also twice held welterweight crowns, but his professional career is best known for his two losing efforts against Mexican legend Julio César Chávez. The first bout in 1990 is regarded by many as one of best drama-filled fights in the history of the sport.

Taylor, who was leading on the scorecards and seemed to outbox Chavez for most of the fight, was dropped in the final seconds of the twelfth round - prompting referee Richard Steele to look him over and wave off the fight with seconds remaining on the clock. Steele's decision to stop the fight is still a hot topic of debate among fans of the sport.
